Construction Debris: What You Can (and Can't) Take to the Dump
Renovating your home? Drywall, lumber, concrete, and roofing materials have different disposal rules than regular trash. Here's what to know.
Read more →GFL Lexington Landfill is the big burial site outside Gilbert where household trash and commercial loads end up. Neighbors, landscapers and hauling companies all use it when their regular pickup won't take something or when they have large, heavy loads.
A scale booth sits near the entrance - trucks and trailers pull up to be weighed, so expect a short stop on the way in and another on the way out. The site is open, with long rows of compacted cells and haul roads; large trucks are common and there's often a line of vehicles waiting on busy days. Signs mark the traffic flow and tipping areas, and there will usually be mounds of cover material and working equipment in view. Because this is a landfill, tipping fees are charged by weight and commercial loads are accepted, so bring whatever paperwork a business account might require.
